The work by Alyssa R and Asahi Lina is great stuff. I have to say that a lot of this is really inscrutable unless you’re used to driver code. I wish it were much easier to write this stuff but hardware stuff is so idiosyncratic.
Have to say I do enjoy all the old school style whimsy with the witch costume and whatnot.
- dylan604 2y agowhat they do is just this side of magic, so maybe it's not really a costume?

- stepupmakeup 2y agoThere was drama with Lina and another person in the vtuber hacker space who directly referred to them as marcan.
- tredre3 2y agoMarcan42 accidentally posted on his twitter as Asahi Lina, and on screen Lina has accidentally shown things identifiable to Marcan (usernames, logged in mastodon account). But he clearly doesn't want to be linked/equated to her for whatever reason, so I don't know why GP brought this up beyond stirring up drama.

- Teever 2y agoIs that actually the purpose though? The appearance of diversity? Maybe marcan42 just wants to present themselves that way.

- talldayo 2y agoThere's something rich about this gjsman showing up to defend Apple as an unpaid lackey, and inventing controversy to justify hating the opposition. I'd say something like "I wonder what it's like inside this user's head" but it seems like their deepest insecurities have been made quite external by now.
- colechristensen 2y agoHere it is best to not engage or add any volume to discussions like this. How you get a community that isn't infested with shallow controversy is by not giving it any attention but small amounts of gentle discouragement.

- renewiltord 2y agoYeah, the culture war stuff is a big deal for people who don’t write code. But I don’t think their opinions are that important for Linux kernel. Pretty effective to have it as honeypot. Allows for easy programmatic filter out for non-coders.

- hi_hi 2y agoI've just been watching her recent talk. I noticed she appears to change slides with a wave of her wand. Is there an known piece of hardware one can purchase to do this? I tried googling, but trying to find the specific result I'm interested in amongst all the blog spam garbage related to powerpoint is beyond me. Even googles own AI couldn't help. Sad times!
- sen 2y agoShe might be doing some OpenCV/MedaPipe gesture tracking? There's lots of tutorials out there and it's not super difficult to get some basic gesture tracking going on your laptop.
- bryanlarsen 2y agoPurchasing one has been illegal since 1863, but the technology typically used is a human assistant, although the signal is usually more subtle.
- sroussey 2y agoUg… a person is watching and clicking for her when she does that?
